About the Program

        Chinese spy balloons? Airport security? Domestic and international spying? In a dangerous world, national security is a concern for every American.

        On May 2nd we’ll welcome Sonoma County’s own Mark Randol, with How Homeland Security Works — From an Insider. He’ll draw on 35 years as a US security specialist to share experiences from the Pentagon’s inner sanctums, to the White House Situation Room, to far-flung assignments around the world.

        Issues abound: How to balance civil rights with domestic information-gathering? What is terrorism vs. insurrection? What happened to Iraq’s nuclear reactors? How safe would our leaders be in a true catastrophe?

        Mark is ready to share some of the most fascinating but least-known aspects in national and homeland security.

        This is a program you won’t want to miss!
